Chic-Chocs Wildlife Reserve, Wildlife reserve in La Haute-Gaspésie, Canada.
The reserve extends across 1,129 square kilometers of the Appalachian chain, featuring mountains reaching heights between 830 and 940 meters above sea level.
The Quebec government established this protected area in 1949 to maintain wildlife habitats and create a natural buffer zone for Gaspésie Park.
The reserve serves as a research site where scientists study the population dynamics of moose, black bears, and threatened woodland caribou species.
Visitors can stay in any of the 15 solar-powered cabins throughout the reserve, which include boats for fishing activities on nearby waters.
The reserve contains an agate and geode mine on Lyall Mountain where visitors search for semi-precious stones during guided expeditions.
